Jun 1, 2008 Cloudy golden with a thick head, maybe due to nitro. Funky pils hops in the nose, but a grainy, muddy flavour that to my senses reminded me of fish and chips. Yes, the top note here, to me, was fried haddock. It’s the first such beer I’ve had with those qualities. Very dry, bland and definitely not excellent.

May 28, 2008 2005-05-23. Crisp golden yellow body with a creamy white head (3+) Sweetish flavour, light grainy notes, yeasty fruit notes. Muted mild sweet grainy aroma. Average palate. Quaffable, nut unpleasant but a touch bland, lackluster. On tap at C’est What

May 27, 2008 Draught. At C’est What. Clear light gold with a small creamy white head (3-). The aroma is very dry and wheaty, soft of floral, nothing bad. The taste is a little awful - dead grass and paper. The mouthfeel is soft, but the body is light and harsh - it wants to be grassy, but it isn’t, it’s just not very good - bring back the old MBA, it was at least sort of decent.

May 26, 2008 Very sessionable light ale, with reasonabley good bitterness in a session ale, and you can smell some hops. Carbonation bubbles, some lace. Would seek this out if only craft beer about, but little complexity of taste. Lighter than average mouthfeel. At C’est What.

May 26, 2008 Half pint at the brewpub- Amber liquid sits beneath an inch of creamy white froth. Nose is of mild fruit and sugary malts with straw and grapefruit. Tastes of muted citric hops and sweet grainy malt, with a hint of bread crust. Pretty creamy and smooth, but fairly flavourless compared to some of their other stuff, and not like any other milds I’ve had.
